Bob Vylan are a two-piece band that mix punk, rock, grime, rap amongst other genres, to create a unique style of music that speaks openly on a wide range of topics. After releasing their critically acclaimed album 'We Live Here' in 2021 the london based duo, consisting of producer/vocalist Bobby and drummer/spiritual inspiration Bobbie, went on to play a sold out UK headline tour (with support from Witch Fever and ZAND) in the summer, played at Reading and Leeds and ALT LDN festivals, been main support to Biffy Cylro and supported The Offspring in arenas across the UK. and now Bob Vylan’s hugely anticipated forthcoming new album 'Bob Vylan Presents The Price Of Life', is set for release through their own Ghost Theatre record label on April 22nd, 2022.

Speaking on the new project, frontman Bobby explains a bit more about the album, it's themes and ideas for this next phase for BOB VYLAN, "This project is a concept album that has a recurring theme of money and the "cost" of things we place value on. Tracks blend into each other and lyrics in one track pull your attention back to a statement made in a previous track or set you up for a song to come. The album has allowed us the space to showcase different sides of our personalities. We don’t want to give the same thing over and over again, so we’re tackling topics in a different way this time. It’s serious and funny, it’s communal and obnoxious, it’s many things at any given time, and it’s a concept project. It explores the idea of paying your way through life and the expense of living in a society that places money above all else. It explores the places we’ve come from and the extremes we’ve seen people go to in order to survive. It also looks at the nuances around money in our society, the less obvious connections, like the world of advertising and art having to align with advertisers' values in order to be given a platform, as well as the price of healthy eating, the cost of technology not necessarily on our pockets but on our lives."

This band are all about community, and for them, their live show is a place where they can really express that. At each show, they start off with mediation and end with a group hug, but what’s between the meditative start and embracing end is a message delivered in a way that both Bobby and Bobbie feel has been missing.
